MACHINE ADJUSTMENTS
Some components of the aggregate delivery system
require occasional minor adjustments. DO NOT adjust
any conveyor component during operation.
Use only Rosco LeeBoy parts if
replacing rubber conveyor components. Using
hard rubber, old conveyor belts or any other rubber
containing fabric or reinforcement will cause rapid
conveyor belt wear and eventual failure.
Loose clothing or long hair can be
entangled in machine components. Wear protective
clothing, stay clear of rotating shafts and use caution
when adjusting conveyor belts and other rotating
components.
Receiving Hopper Lagging Skirts
The lagging skirts are mounted at the bottom of the
receiving hopper and can easily be adjusted when
needed to ensure contact with the conveyor belts
immediately above the tail pulley. (Figure 5-4)
Check for clearance between the skirts and the belts
periodically.

Skirt Bolts
Figure 5-4. Lagging Skirt Mounting Bolts
Adjust the lagging skirts when necessary by loosening
the skirt mounting bolts and moving the black rubber
skirt until it just touches the conveyor belts.
If the skirt shows excessive wear, contact your
authorized Rosco LeeBoy dealer for replacement.
Change Drive Axle Oil
Check the oil level and î›™ll if needed quarterly. Change
the drive axle oil every year for optimum performance.
(Figure 5-3)
To change the drive axle oil:
1. Remove the level plug in the center of the drive axle
housing.
2. Remove the breather plug inside the housing.
3. Add oil until it starts coming out of the level plug.
4. Replace the level plug.
5. Allow the axle to sit level for at least î›™ve minutes to
allow the oil to ow to the hubs.
6. Remove the level plug and check oil level.
7. Add more oil if needed.
